Sandy 6/17 morning

[tenatureboy]

Heading out in the morning to wet the lines….

 

any recent updates from bald eagle to Braddocks?

 

Will share the good bad and ugly tomorrow probably in that order!

I'll probably be out there too. It looks like it will be the last fishable day before a few gales will come through to throw what little balance there is into pure upheaval. I'll do something that I have not done for years. I'll be listening on channel 72

I have to monstrous golden retrievers to take care of. That makes it hard for me to get on the water before 8 in the AM.

Don't bother with 72. The only reasons I still have one of those radio things on my boat is the weather and the MMSI.

And if I am in an evil mood to spread fake news so people will move away from me.

Interested in hearing reports, albeit useless once everything changes tomorrow.

 

My report is that I watched from my kayak as both a deer and a bear swam across the South end of Hemlock. I'd have been hard pressed to paddle faster than the bear could swim...but I could beat the deer lol.

This morning was great boating weather, but it sucked for fishing. There were hooks and bait around 50 foot down over a hundred feet of water, but no takers. I continued out  280 feet and then back in to 250. At 50 t0 80 down over 250  there was a blank screen and the water temperature was around 47 to 49 between 40 and 90 feet down. Then I turned west because it seemed that there were some break lines on the surface that way. Sure enough the farther west the warmer the water became all the way up to 54 degrees at 70 foot down but no thermocline to speak of. Then within 15 minutes I caught 3 steelies all barely legal so back in the water they went. I was off the water by 1pm. All in all a nice morning. Probably the last one in a while with the weather prophets telling us that it will rain and storm for a while.
